Description : A quick idea I did in one day, 2 mixes, more an exercise for myself than anything serious. Inspirations were a Peter Tosh docu for the reggae feel, a surfing vid on what a point break was for the vox, the Ace of Bass vid The Sign for the drums and Jaco Pastorius song Crisis for a bit of inspirational bass thrown in. 2 drum loops used and a vocal effect loop for the heck of it in the middle, he. Live percussion, cabasa, guiro and double maraca. Me on git, bass, vox. Here comes Summer!

really great. Lee Scratch meets Sublime meets theHumps - nice work all round.

Plus love a good point break.

p.s. I thought I was only one that used the word 'git' :)

Looks like you made quick work of that mix job theHumps, sounds good to me.

I hear things that need fixing like track volume levels. I would also go back and arrange some things differently, change some vocal stabs, add better guitar licks...

The drum loops I feel would have limited me to some extent if I spent the usual 2 weeks mixing but that was sorta good for this exercise in a way as I didn't have to fuss too much with them.

Thanks!

Hey Mark! Something quick and a little out of my comfort zone, reggae isn't something I play often.

All the tracks were one takes and 2 quick mixes. Little rough in spots where I could easily go back and adjust/fix but that wasn't the purpose of the song.

Take care!

Probably only the 3rd reggae song I ever put together and considering the tracking took about half an hour I think it came out ok. I was thinking more of this one for music behind a surf video, instrumental rather than full of words, background music to some cool surf clips.

Thanks for the nice words, cheers!

Thanks man!

Just something fast I threw together as a personal challenge. Needs some work on just about everything but I like it.

Description : Music composed by Alex Richard and Laurent Wirz. With: Hanspeter Dubach Lead and rhythm guitars, Alex Richard Bass and rhythm guitars, Claude Barbotte Hammond organ, Joël Perrin Saxophone and me at the drums. The two grooves I used for this one are to find under Loops and Sample, member laurentwirz, reggae. Also an excellent loop from member ebae. I have to say that I asked Michael Mayo before publishing it but I received no answer yet. It was pretty difficult with his acapella because it's a pretty short loop with not a lot of words (for an almost 5 minutes track)! You can ear also some background vocals from Patricia Edwards and I hope it's okay for her.

Description : Richard Shekari and I worked on this project earlier this year. I play bass, guitar, banjo, dobro and also sing on this. Richard added a cool harmonica sound and has an amazing voice. I have learned a lot from him, Richard produced this track.

Description : NEW - 2014 - I used a few samples from sterixx called riddim.
And one from seanmccuaig called vocal beat.
I used some lyrics from an older song by myself. It was more a dark wave song befor but i realy enjoyed it to sing and produce it in reggae style.
Hope you enjoy this version also.
